Grasping & Pick Object

Robotic grasping is the design and control of gripper systems that reliably pick, move, and place physical objects. It combines three domains: mechanical engineering (gripper design), computer vision (detecting object location and pose), and control algorithms (planning grip forces, detecting slip). Advanced practitioners design gripper hardware, write computer vision pipelines to detect objects, plan pick poses, and implement force control to prevent drops or damage. They iterate on physical robots until pick success rates exceed 95%.
